How do you guys feel about placing the fictional metaguards above the real-life metaguards (aka ourselves)?
They're more important to the story right now, while we just created those entries in case the ARG needs to be fictionalized.

Yes I think that makes sense, a fairly easy move to make.
They sometimes say, "the place where I am right now was circled on a map for me"... Unfortunately, I kind of suck at orienteering.

Yea, I was wondering why they were below us...

Yea, I know, was thinking about doing it right away :P
But after my screw-up with the Just For Fun page I thought I'd ask first :oops:

And, by the way, why did you people move the forum tropes back? Just For Fun was pretty fitting, AND now that the page is created, it will always be shown on the left and will keep irritating me. :evil: And of course, I have no idea how to delete the pages.

Well most people were against creating a separate page for the forum tropes, so I moved the forum tropes back again.
After that you said
But I think they are fine where they are now.

so I thought you agreed as well.
If it annoys you that much, I can try changing the page type... Not sure if it'll work though.

EDIT: didn't work, now for the Cut List.

It's just that the page is too small to split into even more subpages...

I've added JustForFun/TheWallWillFall to the Cut List, and it looks like it's gone :D
Also I've added Medusa as a character, as we can probably think of quite a few tropes about her now that we have heard Dilly's story.

She should have a quote line too. It's not fair to let her without one when all the others have it.
What you think about:
“You’ve seen me, yet you live. Why are you not turned to stone?”

Hmm, yeah, I'll add that :mrgreen:
I myself was thinking about

Not very descriptive, but the orders of magnitude just makes it sound so epic :shock:

That one is good. But it's a backlash, not exactly the feeling that Medusa passes on Dilly's short... She's more inquisitive and open to dialog... The orders of magintude sounds like a battle cry. And we didn't have a battle. That's the only reason I don't think it should be the quote.

Kay then :P
Your quote is more to the point too, I added it. Thanks for adding a trope to me btw :gurt:
It's pretty hard for me to think of tropes that fit other people >.<

I am not sure if this post belongs here but I wanted to put this out there because I don't know the original person's name of who did it so whatever.

I noticed in the timeline of TheWallWillFall my Chatroom thingy got put up there. I don't think (Since it isn't canonical) that it should be put out there as it isn't canon and isn't related to the original ARG. Unless I am missing something.

rEALITY is in the Timeline. "Fake" (as in non-canon) leads get registered too. They were color coded orange, but Fast Eddie removed color coding from the wiki. But it's still something we register whenever it draws enough attention... And we did ask Mr. A about your chatroom, so...

And you guys did say it was non-canonical so nobody will be confused.

And I don't think it got THAT much attention. Sure it grabbed a couple users here and there but not enough to warrant a lot of attention.

Wait, why was color coding removed, I thought that was useful. (I mean I guess not really, I ended up just reading every bullet point anyway)

Yea, were it not for the color coding I would not have known who rEALITY was. And wait a minute... rEALITY wasn't canon?

FastEddie decided it was "ugly", so he completely removed the color function from all pages of the wiki. Excuse me if I sound bitter. THAT WOULD BE BECAUSE I AM. If he had a bloody decent reason, I wouldn't be this pissed...

No, rEALITY was a player who wanted to try and troll us and make us panic. He confessed after a few days of it.
The voices in my head tell me that we saved the world. However, they also told me that George Clooney's face is on the dollar bill, so... meh. The voices are more fun, anyway.

Okay, sorry I brought it up, but this isn't the thread for this conversation. If you want to continue this discussion please do it in an off topic thread.

What did he do or say?
I am having a hard time finding him on the sheet so I might as well ask here.

Back on topic. Now that we are starting to get the comic book pages, I think it would be more appropriate to replace the character images with the ones from there.
